Shores Community Church

Acts 12The early church began to experience a time of persecution. They had a decision to make, fret and worry or trust in God. How did they choose to respond? What can we learn from this and how should we respond to hard times? Supernatural peace is not the absence of problems but something we live regardless of hard times.

Matthew 27:45-54 There are two crosses in life. First, there is Man's Cross. The weight of the world's sin hangs on it. Second, there is God's Cross.

Acts 3-4Today we are looking at a great miracle in Acts as Peter heals a lame man. The miracle is incredible, and the message Peter shares with the onlookers is transformative. What message do we need to share with people who don't know Christ, and what should we repeat to believers who need a reminder? We have something to say, and we all must share it!
